We work collaboratively with people from across the grocery industry.
Our work is driven by a steering committee of experienced and influential figures from across the industry, alongside direct support from a small group of employees.
I pride myself on:
Always giving my time to people who ask for it.
When I was younger I wanted to be:
A ballet dancer.
I pride myself on:
Being open and honest and always seeking to understand the place where someone is coming from and where they want to get to.
The skill I wish I had is:
Finesse and arty creativity – no matter what I try and find it very difficult to make things look beautiful.
I will never compromise on:
Key moment in my son’s life, everything else can generally be done around those key moments you can’t get back.
I will never compromise on:
Learning and using that learning to help others, it brings more satisfaction than I could ever have imagined. One of the few gratifications of experience and advancing years.
I pride myself on:
Having a very strong moral compass, and using it.
My role model is:
Dag Hjalmar Agne Carl Hammarskjöld, ex UN. He was Swedish economist and diplomat who served as the second Secretary-General of the United Nations. Hammarskjöld was the youngest person to have held the Secretary-General post. He made a huge difference to the world.
I wish I had time to:
Enjoy my children more, but having your own business is like having a child, and I am lucky to have hands on support from loving patient grandparents.
When I was younger I wanted to be:
007.
My dream job is:
Now it'd be a combination of interior designer and landscape gardener. Less guns, more flowers.
My dream job would be:
CEO of a Disney World. It combines my obsession with what outstanding customer service looks like and a massive family love of rollercoasters.
My role model is:
My role model has been my Dad, who taught me to be curious of both life and people, hard work is worth it and enjoy the adventures along the way.
I will never compromise on:
Recruiting the 'A Team': because culture eats strategy for lunch.
I pride myself on:
I believe everyone has an 'everyday superpower' - something they spike in, that others would marvel at. I enjoy helping people discover theirs and then growing it even more, as I'm a big believer in strengths-based leadership.
When I was younger I wanted to be:
A nurse and that's what I did originally, I learnt a huge amount and concluded it wasn't the future for me.
I wish I had time to:
Follow my own advice.
My dream job is:
What I'm doing currently. I'm still as excited and curious as I was on day one.
The skill I wish I had is:
Being in the moment. I'm always lurching into the future.
My dream job would be:
A combination of a travel blogger and having my own spinning studio as I have a passion for running my own business alongside travel and fitness.
I will never compromise on:
Not being able to go running or do some form of exercise each day. Even when its been a horrible tough day a workout all makes me feel like me again.
My dream job would be:
CEO of Liberty, the best shop in the world or be running my own art gallery in St Ives.
I wish I had time to:
Read more… always so busy. I wish I had more time to travel too… I will one day.
We’re building a network to bring to bring people together, start conversations and see more women in leadership.
